This I don't understand. Your two year old dies and you play 2 days later?

AP said he will play Sunday.

Kind of like the Ravens player that played last year the day his brother was killed in an accident.

People handle grief differently. I wouldn't be able to function if my child died, especially the way his did!

Yes, we all handle grief differently. AP will be on field and running. The metaphor will be running for his son's life. Pity the poor team defense called to keep this Viking down because he will rip up the record books.

AP is a civil man, I am sure the anger is deep. AP could go out and get drunk and drive; get a gun and start shooting...no, he is a civil man.

These are my opinions but I could be wrong.

For what I read, Peterson didn't know this kid existed until recently (don't know how recent); seems the child was the product of a booty call, so Peterson probably doesn't feel the attachment. It may be Peterson never actually saw the child.

That was my gut feeling but I didn't want to speculate and get called out for profiling.
